Color choices speak a lot about one's personality
and when it comes to fashion, colors indeed have to be picked up rather
cautiously. At times, even after settling for the most stylish of all
dresses, a wrong choice of color can end it up as a fashion blunder.
Hence, colors should be duly considered while buying a garment.
It is this crucial importance which colors hold that every designer
pays special attention on the color palette of his collection. This year
Spring Summer 2010 is all about the soft shades and tones. The caressing
warmth and tranquility of soft feminine hues or the delicate versatility
of neutrals would be the flavor of the season. Contrasting to the
neutral and feminine tones, would be a dash of vibrant tones as well.
Presenting here the top ten color tones which dominated the New York
Fashion Week front.
 |
Turquoise: Turquoise shade brings along with it, the
freshness and cooling effect of sea side and clear waters. It
refreshes the senses adds onto the feminism quotient. |
 |
Pink Champagne: Pink champagne is an extremely pastel
combination of ivory and beige. It can prove a great base color for
playing with bolder shades on the forefront. |
 |
Amparo Blue: Amparo blue is a shade between navy blue and
royal blue. It is a vibrant color hinting the liveliness of summers
without being too harsh as royal blue. |
 |
Fusion Coral: Fusion coral is a warm pinkish peach shade.
It can be related to tropical sunsets and passion fruit. |
 |
Violet: Violet represents romance. A mix of lavender and
purple, this gentle shade is said to carry uplifting properties. |
 |
Tomato Puree: Tomato puree as the name suggests is a
bright pinkish red shade. It is the brightest shade of spring summer
2010 season and hence, can be used dramatically with the other
neutral and soft shades of the season. |
 |
Dried Herb: Dried herb is a wispy tone of gray-green. A
shade softer than khaki, it can too, be used as an amazing base. |
 |
Aurora: Aurora refers to the refreshing tone similar to
that of the first glimpse of sunshine over the horizon. It is a
toned down version of the starking yellowish green. |
 |
Eucalyptus: Eucalyptus is an elegant shade of soft gray.

bolder shades. |
